You know how sometimes you're just laying in bed trying to go to sleep,
and suddenly you get that feeling like you're falling really fast just
for a split second? I really hate that. Makes me jump out of my skin...
but then of course you realise you only imagined it.
At about 1 AM today, I woke up and it seemed like the entire bed was
shaking. And shaking fairly hard, actually. As if there was a washing
machine on a spin cycle next to my bed. And then after a moment or two
it stopped.
I couldn't figure out how that would be possible, so I figured I was
just dreaming or something. But I remember being annoyed at being awake,
and checking the clock to see what the hell the time is. It took a
while, but eventually I managed to go back to sleep.
Oh, and in other news, apparently there was an earth quake last night...

I get that every once in a while - I could say maybe once per 2 months oslt.
There's a train track at 200-300 meters away from here and if a _very_
heavy train passes by all the surrounding grounds shake up a bit. The
first time was freaking, while the bed just starts shaking a lot (my bed
_amplificates_ the darn shaking, so it's pretty more noticeable at the
bed than anywhere else).

One could think that some law (hmm, what's "kaavoitus" in English?)
would prohibit building too close to train tracks and other such noisy
environments, but I suppose not.

Hmm, now there's an interesting thought... I know there are regulations
here against high noise levels, but I don't think there's actually
anything against low-frequency vibrations. (i.e., something that's
seisemic rather than sonic.)
Why that's relevant I'm not really sure... and um... wow, is it noon
already?

Well, it was fairly strong. I mean, it wasn't a gentle twitch, it was a
fairly serious *shaking*...

Well, my house is actually built 60 years ago and I have no idea, how
don't actually apply (actually, theres much newer houses between mine
and the track). I think the basic problem comes from increasing weights
of the trains - 60 years ago there probably wasn't such massive
movements on that track as today (note that they still are rare).
